CLDR 24 data submission has started on the 30th:
http://cldr.unicode.org/index/survey-tool/whats-new

Reza,
+mediawiki-i18n mailing list.
I checked few of the languages and I believe most of them in the
drop-down list are available in CLDR 22.1 are already present in that
list with proper translations. Apparently, there is another issue with
inheritance in their use of CLDR. For example in that language drop-down
in the page you mentioned, "ug" (Uyghur) is properly translated as
"اویغوری", but the following choices "ug-arab" and "ug-latn" which
specify if the language is written in Arabic or Latin script, are not.
In this case the parent locale ("ug") shouldn't be displayed at all
(hence http://goo.gl/Koy3x) and the name of the language and appropriate
scripts (which exists in CLDR as well) should be used for the script
variants of the locale ("ug-arab" and "ug-latn"). It might be an issue
which raise when the translated script name is missing in CLDR data
since the label for "ku-arab" is displayed okay.
More major problem here is that lots of these languages are not - yet -
supported by CLDR. The following link shows a list of languages which
are added to CLDR as supported languages for content submission (locale
data, etc.):
http://st.unicode.org:8080/cldr-apps/survey?_=root&x=Languages
And here are the Persian translations:
http://st.unicode.org:8080/cldr-apps/survey?_=fa&x=Languages
Wikimedia projects support way more languages (specifically minority
ones) and it's desired to add the locale data for these to CLDR, but the
process is not very straightforward for common users of Wikimedia
projects. There were some efforts to assist users of various Wikimedia
projects to submit data to CLDR (see
http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Language_support_team/CLDR-2012).
All in all, I'm interested in a relatively more straightforward solution
to collect some of the locale data from the Wikimedia projects community
to be submitted to CLDR.

Shervin

Hi,
I want to localize https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CLDR
and it uses CLDR data.
i.e. if you check here
<http://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Special:Translate&group=mediawiki&language=fa&setlang=fa>
by
clicking on زبان tab it shows each language but some of them are not
translated to Farsi .
Does any one know where can I translate these language names? I am
confused.
